Month: September 2018

For Arcanus: interiors: describe your OC(s) bedroom/home/or a place they consider “theirs”. what’s in it? do certain items have a special significance to your OC?

Arcanus’ room is very well kept, everything in its place and almost so neat it doesn’t look lived in. He does, however, have large bookshelves for his numerous books, so that at least gives some character to the room. There isn’t much in his room that has special significance, though because he’s just become so used to keeping a minimal amount of possessions ever since taking up work as a merc.

For Damocles: photo album: describe one of your OCs’ favorite memories.

At the time of the event, getting a tattoo was the best, but currently if he looks back, then he’d say it had to be the day he stood up for Aeson and their friendship started. Aeson is probably the only person able to break through those walls Damocles has and he can’t imagine life if he hadn’t stepped in so long ago. Hell, he’d probably be a lot worse off.

Thanks for the asks!

Who crushed first? 

I actually don’t really think it was crushing so much as they built a solid friendship and it just naturally turned into interest. Now, though, Ellie is never shy of telling Arcanus just how sexy he looks. He might not quite say it back, but he shows her in all the little things he does.

Who gets naughty in the most inappropriate places? 

Hm … These two are very professional even in their sex life, so I’m afraid that they don’t really get naughty in inappropriate places. Sure, Ellie can have her fun and maybe goose him when he walks by, but never in front of their men because she knows that would really upset him.

Where is the strangest place they’d have sex? 

They’re pretty vanilla, but they have had sex out on the beach late at night after a nice picnic and wine.

How often do they disagree with each other?

They barely ever disagree. Usually, it was in the beginning where they were still learning about each other and their preferences. Now, though, they only have lighthearted disagreements like what they want for dinner or she wants to watch a certain movie and he would rather read. Nothing earth shattering and really just a way to bond more.

Thanks for the asks!

During Ellie’s stay in the Normandy, was their any funny or awkward moments between Arcanus and Elyse? 

Actually, things were really tense even after Jane and Garrus made them act right and suck it up. They hadn’t really had a chance to talk in depth over what had happened and what they were going through since her leaving him high and dry because she was only aboard for a short time. It helped that someone was there to practically babysit them because it forced them to be in each other’s company. It’s how they opened a dialogue after she left the Normandy.

Thanks for the ask! 

–answer these however you like! some parts have multiple questions, you don’t have to answer them all. you can answer for one OC or many, or askers can ask about a specific OC. approach them however you like. you can use these for character development exercises too. just have fun with it!–

Does anyone have any theories as to which Mass Effect species are able to successfully breed outside of their species? We know the asari have evolved to reproduce this way, but could the others do so through more traditional means?

Like, turians and humans are both viviparous, but would they be too different genetically to produce offspring? Krogan and turians seem to be more similar in biology, but krogan are oviviparous.

Another factor to consider is the advanced science in the series. Would that help with any attempts at cross species reproduction?

I’d say no, it’s virtually impossible because they all come from different evolutionary trees.

in the unlikely event it does happen, any offspring would likely be infertile

The Salarians have funded weirder projects to answer stranger questions than this I’m sure.

More than cross species, the dextro-levo thing would kill the baby because there’s no way for it to eat in the womb of a mother that is poisoned by the kind of food it needs.

I kinda headcanon that Turians and Quarians might be able to if Quarians’ immune systems were less fucked.

These are very good points, thank you!

What about the Angara? Their diets are similar enough to humans’ and they are also viviparous, though i feel as though any individual pregnant with the cross-breed would need almost constant medical monitoring on the fetus through development.

We still fall in the matter of Incompatible genetics, and maybe fall into allergic reactions. For all we know the Angara have been designed only to mate with each other and have body fluids desintegrate in hostile environments

I may be talking out my ass, so probably don’t quote me, but I think I remember seeing something about scientifically trying to create hybrids was illegal? Idk, I might be projecting our current stance on that kind of thing.

I’m still gonna have my Reaper made hybrid babes, lol

Thank you so much! It means a lot to hear from readers 🙂

I admit that I didn’t really think about adding that in because I didn’t think it’d happen in front of Jane or Garrus in order to be in their POV. I should come back to it though because it was a huge mix of emotions when they finally managed to talk about it. Ellie practically fell apart and even Arcanus showed emotion, though mostly hurt and anger. They didn’t make up completely right then and there, but they did manage to open up enough that he was willing to work with her while she worked for the Shadow Broker. It took some time after that for her to test the waters with some light talk and, from there, their affection rekindled. And it rekindled fast. It didn’t take long before they were right back where they left off.
